???? Project Title:

Secure File Sharing

???? Summary:

The Secure File Sharing platform enables users to upload, store, and share files with strong encryption and secure access controls. This project aims to provide a private and safe environment for sharing sensitive data between individuals or teams, ensuring that the files are only accessible to authorized users.

✨ Key Features:

File Encryption: End-to-end encryption ensures that files are secure during transfer and storage.

User Authentication: Multi-factor authentication (MFA) for secure user login.

Access Controls: Set file permissions (view, edit, download) for specific users or groups.

Temporary Links: Share files via time-limited, expiring download links.

Audit Logs: Track file activities such as uploads, downloads, and edits.

Version Control: Keep track of different versions of files for collaborative editing.

Secure File Sharing: Share large files with encryption, preventing unauthorized access.

Cross-platform Compatibility: Accessible through web browsers, desktop apps, and mobile devices.

Cloud Integration: Files are stored in secure cloud storage (AWS S3, Google Cloud, etc.).

????️ Technologies Used:

Frontend: React.js, Angular, or Vue.js

Backend: Node.js with Express.js, or Django

File Storage: Amazon S3, Google Cloud Storage, or custom storage solutions

Encryption: AES-256 for file encryption, SSL/TLS for secure communication

Authentication: OAuth 2.0, JWT, Multi-factor Authentication (MFA)

Database: MongoDB or PostgreSQL

APIs: RESTful APIs for file upload, download, and management

Hosting: AWS, Heroku, or DigitalOcean

⚙️ Working Process:

User Registration/Authentication: Users create accounts and log in using secure methods (e.g., MFA).

File Upload: Users upload files, which are automatically encrypted before being stored in cloud storage.

Access Control Setup: Users set permissions (who can view, download, or edit the files).

Sharing Files: Files are shared through secure, temporary links with time restrictions.

File Download: Recipients can securely download files within the access timeframe.

Audit Logs: Admins track all file-related activities in real-time for security and transparency.

✅ Benefits:

Security: Strong encryption protects files from unauthorized access and theft.

Privacy: Ensures that files are only accessible to authorized users, enhancing privacy.

Ease of Use: Simple file sharing process with a user-friendly interface.

Compliance: Helps businesses meet data protection regulations such as GDPR, HIPAA.

Collaboration: Securely share and work on files with team members without compromising security.

Scalability: Easily store and share large files with cloud storage, accessible from anywhere.

Time Efficiency: Temporary links allow quick and secure sharing without long-term file storage.
